Although very extensive prepare

outbreak which might occur, they
were unnecessary, as the city was re-

occurred, the entire population seem

tragic drama being enacted.
THEY DIE BRAv1LY.
All four insisted upon walking un
assisted to the scaffold, snd appeared
to permit the black caps to be drawn
down over their faces only with the
greatest reluctance.
Fischer's last words were: "Hurrah
for anarchy" He was bold and de-

Parsons assumed the look of . mar.
tyr, and acted his part we'll. His last
words we're: "May l be permitted to
speak? Will you let me speak ?
Sheriff Matson, let the voice of the
down-trodden people be heard!"
Spies's last words were: "There will
come time when our silence will be
more powerful than the voices they
are strangling to death now!"
Engel's last words were: "Hurral

A sense Of relief pervades the com.

without any of the serious disasters

Hunger for Praise.

Nomens efforts to please in the matter OF
cooking are rarely appreciated, OF, if so, she
hears no word of condemnation. Men do not
seem to realize how much a vonlan's heart
hungers for words of praise from their hus-
hand's lips If she prepares some dainty dish
to tempt his appetite he is too careless TO note
how eagerly she waits to know if he likes it
Appreciation Is one OF the hest incentives the
world affords. After the Iabofs incident t.

What Is taste, anyway? 1t is said TO be
'the instantaneous, ready appreciation of the
fitness of things" To most of us who observe
it in others, perhaps regretting the want of it
In ourselves, it seems to be an instinct. We
envy these fortunate few who are always
well dressed, who never buy unbecoming
stuffs. who have that gift to make their
clothes look as if they had simply hlossomei
out OF their inner eonsciences rs n rose bios
SONS out of its calyx. Some women always
dress their hair becomingly and look their
best Others always make mistakes, and some
are, even if handsome, apt to be beautiful
frights, whose clothes seem to have been
hurled at them by tornado. One poor
young husband, who had married beauty
with no taste, said of his wife: a feel as if
had married hurricane"
Some women, morally good and true, have
sort of moral want of taste, and wear too
bright colorS, too many glass beads, too much
hair, combination of snowy fashions and
poor materials, which, taken as a whole,
gives a good dresser the same sort of anguish
to look at as discordant note in the orChes-
ira affects musical ear. There are persons.
otherwise agreeable, in whom we recognize
this want of taste as running through the
mind, or across it, sort of intellectual bar

illusions are not legitimate. People who say
innocently things which shock you or, as
Punch puts it, Things one would rather not
have said" not necessarily bad things, but
awkward things, who put all the diners-out
on tenterhooks at a fashionable dinner, such
people, we say, have either no taste or bad
taste
1t should be the province of woman to put

it may, man has always expected her to wear
